stops
|
obstructing airstream completely in the oral cavity.
[p] voiceless biliabial stop [b] voiced bilabial stop ( [t]=voiceless alveolar stop [d]= voiced alveolar stop [k]= voiceless velar stop [g]=voiced velar stop [ʔ]= voiceless glottal stop) uh-oh |
|
fricatives
|
made by forming a nearly complete obstruction of the vocal tract. The opening through which the air escapes is very small, and as a result turbulent noise is produced.
9 sounds: [ʃ] voiceless palatal fricative [f] voiceless labiodental fricative [v] voiced labiodental fricative [θ] voiceless interdental fricative [ð] voiced interdental fricative [s] voiceless alveolar fricative [z] voiced alveolar fricative [ʒ] voiced palatal fricative [h] voiceless glottal fricative |
|
affricate
|
briefly stopping the airstream completely and then releasing the articulators slightly so that frication noise is produced.
(sequence of a stop followed by a fricative) 2 sounds: [tʃ]= voiceless palatal affricate [dʒ]= voiced palatal affricate |
|
Nasals
|
lowering the velum and thus opening the nasal passage to the vocal tract
3 sounds: [m]=voiced bilabial nasal [n]= voiced alveolar nasal [ŋ]= voiced velar nasal |
|
Liquids
|
one articulator is close to another, but still the space is wide enough to allow the airstream through with an audible friction:
2 sounds: [l]= voiced alveolar lateral [r]=voiced alveolar lateral |
|
approximants
|
glides+liquid [ɹ]
